The topic has to be specified in the submission form. If you are presenting results for a benchmark that has already been proposed, then please choose "experience report". If you are proposing a new benchmark, but also give some results, then please choose "benchmark proposal". The title of your paper should NOT include the topic. Please also do not use variations of topics in the title:

wrong: "Benchmark: Performance Guarantees for Forklifts"

right: "Performance Guarantees for Forklifts"

wrong: "Benchmark Results: We Dig Forklifts"

right: "We Dig Forklifts"

wrong: "Tool: The Forklift Analyzer"

right: "The Forklift Analyzer"

wrong: "Tool Results: The Forklift Analyzer Rules"

right: "The Forklift Analyzer Rules"

In the pdf, you should display the category in parentheses underneath the title, unless it's just a regular paper. For example: Performance Guarantees for Forklifts (Benchmark Proposal).

In Latex, the easiest way to produce the above is to add the category line in the \title segment, but this is only a Latex hack: \title{Performance Guarantees for Forklifts\\ (Benchmark Proposal)}.

In the EasyChair submission info, the title should still be: Performance Guarantees for Forklifts

2. Use the header \documentclass[EPiC]{easychair}.

3. To avoid orphan and widow lines, include the nowidow package as follows: \usepackage[defaultlines=4,all]{nowidow}

4. Do NOT include a table of contents.

5. Do not change the font (packages times, mathptmx, etc. are not allowed).

9. In the title of the paper, please avoid lines with only one word. For example, instead of An example with a long title for illustration adding a line break leads to the preferable version: An example with a long title for illustration
